A crucial role in supporting this SDG has a sustainable business. In this article, we have considered labour demotivation in the light of the eighth SDG. We stressed the importance of improving the diagnostics system of demotivation of labour for companies that want to increase profits and be socially responsible. During the literature review, we found a lack of research on labour demotivation and diagnostics. Therefore, we analysed the diagnostic systems' composition and substantiated the main stages, criteria, and functions of the diagnostic system of labour demotivation. We also discussed the prospects of integrating demotivation diagnostics into the enterprise management system.

The study utilised secondary data from the World Bank Development Indicators. The data were analysed using ordinary least squares regression, vector autoregressive model, and threshold regression. Findings from the study revealed that economic development had an inverse and significant effect on carbon intensity in line with the prediction of the Environmental Kuznets Curve. Meanwhile, population growth and urbanisation exerted a positive and significant effect on carbon intensity in Nigeria. The VAR regression result indicated that urbanisation, carbon intensity, and economic development were strongly endogenous in predicting themselves. The threshold regression revealed that the optimal urbanisation level that will not propelcarbon intensity in Nigeria is 14.444%. As such, rural development policies should be encouraged to curb massive rural-urban migration, which can drive up the degree of urbanisation in Nigeria","PeriodicalId":108368,"journal":{"name":"Law, Business and Sustainability Herald","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132166067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article examines the problems of freedom of conscience in various spheres of public relations. We have considered multiple aspects of this phenomenon: legal, economic, ethical, philosophical, epistemological, social. We paid special attention to the legal aspect of freedom of conscience. Due to this, we analyzed the existing legal guarantees of believers, non-believers and atheists, to determine the prospects for their further development. We have drawn attention to the fact that reducing the problems of freedom of conscience only to the legal aspect leads to the substitution of the worldview principles of a democratic society and to ideologizing. We have analyzed the different views of scholars on freedom of conscience as ethical, moral and personal categories. Based on a comprehensive socio-legal analysis of freedom of conscience, we concluded that the most important aspects of freedom of conscience are social, philosophical and legal. Finally, we argue that freedom of conscience is the basis for sustainable development in meaning of the 10th and 16th SDGs.","PeriodicalId":108368,"journal":{"name":"Law, Business and Sustainability Herald","volume":"138 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116648438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article aims to find new ways to balance production, taxation, and forestry investment to ensure sustainable development. We sought answers to three main questions: Does the modern mechanism of state regulation and forestry financing in Ukraine meet sustainability requirements? What changes will the critical problems of forest ecosystems arise in Ukraine in the long run? What are the prospects for the development of investment in forestry in Ukraine? To answer these questions, we conducted exploratory analyses of taxation and investment in forestry management. Then, we developed a multifactorial forecasting model to predict forest ecosystems' restoration state by 2035. Using the model, we characterized the relationship between ecological and economic factors for reforestation in the border regions of Ukraine. Finally, we analyzed the coefficients of forest capacity, yield and dynamics of afforestation. According to the results, we proposed: 1) to separate the functions of standard-setting and forest inventory from the function of forest land management; 2) to separate the function of economic activity and control over the implementation of forestry development plans; 3) to stimulate public control and increase effective monitoring of anthropogenic load, forest use and rehabilitation; 4) to improve the organizational and institutional management mechanism as a component of forest production which is the key to improving the forestry sustainability.","PeriodicalId":108368,"journal":{"name":"Law, Business and Sustainability Herald","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133076528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, we revealed the role of small businesses in Ukraine's sustainable development and explored the European experience. Secondly, we explored the main components of business orientation and enterprise growth of Ukrainian small innovative enterprises. Thirdly, we established the relationship between the individual components of enterprise growth and its entrepreneurial orientation. We also discussed the informatization issues in connection with expanding the entrepreneurial orientation of small enterprises to strengthen their role in sustainable development processes, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemia.

Fourth, we name the exact problems of the realisation of the economic sovereignty of Ukraine.
